Hebrews 10:23

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, etc..] Either in the grace or doctrine of faith, or in the profession of both; (see Gill on “<580414>Hebrews 4:14”). For he [is] faithful that promised; that is God; and it is true of Father, Son, and Spirit; but God the Father may be more especially designed: he is a promising God, and is known to be so by his people; he is eminently and emphatically the Promiser; and all other promisers, and the promises made by them, signify little; but the promises of God are exceeding great and precious, very ancient, free, and unconditional, irrevocable and immutable, and are admirably suited to the cases of his people, and will be…”

“(Heb 3:6, Heb 3:14; Heb 4:14.) profession--Greek, "confession." our faith--rather as Greek, "our hope"; which is indeed faith exercised as to the future inheritance.

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering - To secure this was one of the leading designs of this Epistle, and hence, the apostle adverts to it so frequently. It is evident that those whom he wrote were suffering persecution Hebrews 12:0, and that there was great danger that they would apostatize. As these persecutions came probably from the Jews, and as the aim was to induce them to return to their former opinions, the object of the apostle is to show that there was in the Christian scheme every advantage of which the Jews could boast; everything pertaining to the dignity of the great Founder of the system, the character of the High Priest, and the nature and value of…”

“The profession of our hope - The hope which we professed at our baptism. Hebrews 10:25”

“10:23 We are to hold tightly . . . to the hope we affirm, that Christ’s death is effective in winning us right relationship with God.”

“hold: Heb 3:6, Heb 3:14, Heb 4:14; Rev 3:11 wavering: Jam 1:6 for: Heb 6:18, Heb 11:11; Co1 1:9, Co1 10:13; Th1 5:24; Th2 3:3; Tit 1:2 Hebrews 10:24”
